This sub-bassin, on the right bank where the city of Hanoi ils located, provides water supply to the main part of the totla population of the RRD. Very few studies have discussed the impact of the tidal movement in the river fluxes transported to the sea. The tidal influence on the river discharge has been investigated through several ADCP gauging measurements during repetitions of 24h-long surveys. Due to the tidal move, the instantaneous river discharge values describe a daily cycle with one daily maximum, one daily minimum and a short period of stream current at value zero. Our calculation recorded a daily range from + 150m3/s to -250m3/s. This inverse current implies a significant impact on the river fluxes transported to the estuarine zone. And the river discharge on the RRD cannot be calculated by a classical calibration equation linking water level and discharge, since there is no univocal relationship. specialized VIET NAM 062 Sané T. ed. edt IRD Dièye E.H.B. ed. edt IRD Dia A.H. ed. edt IRD Descroix Luc ed. edt IRD Sow B.A. ed. edt IRD Diédhiou P. ed. edt IRD Diakhaté M.M. ed. edt IRD Ndour N. ed. edt IRD 347-358 Dakar L'Harmattan-Sénégal 2021 Actes du Colloque International LMI-PATEO-UASZ, Ziguinchor (SEN), 2019/11/19-22 https://www.documentation.ird.fr/hor/fdi:010088978 978 2 343 22490 9 [F A010088972] https://www.documentation.ird.fr/hor/fdi:010088978 Accès réservé (Intranet de l'IRD) IRD - Base Horizon / Pleins textes 2023-11-09 2023-11-14 fdi:010088978 fre
